“Gosh, Janet sounds like a horrible person.” Charis scrunched her nose up in disgust.
“How ungrateful she is! After all, the Lind family had adopted her. Your parents raised her. How could
she hurt them? Is this how she repays their kindness? That’s vindictive,” she continued to provoke
Jocelyn.
“That’s not all the bad things that Janet has done. She was raised in the countryside, so she had
developed all sorts of nasty habits. Our family is unfortunate to have adopted a vicious monster.”
Jocelyn’s resentment toward Janet grew stronger. She wished to kill her right away.
“Calm down. Don’t make any hasty decisions.” Charis pretended to be calm and comforted her. Jocelyn
was seething with rage and was no longer in the mood to continue shopping. She hurriedly picked up
her shopping bags and stood up.
“No, I have to go back right now. I can’t let go of Janet. She is a vicious bitch! I can’t watch her live a
happy life when we are suffering.” Charis was pleased with Jocelyn’s reaction. The woman was fuming
with rage and couldn’t control her emotions.
“Then, about what happened today…” Charis worriedly held Jocelyn’s hand.
“Well, you know I work for the Larson Group. I hope you don’t get me involved in this.” She didn’t want
to blatantly remind Jocelyn about it. However, she had to because the woman was foolish, and Charis
feared she might expose her.
“Don’t worry. I know what to do.” Jocelyn left with a grumpy look on her face. Leaning against the chair,
Charis picked up the cup of black tea and took a sip, her gaze fixed on Jocelyn. A slow smile emerged
on her face as she realized the woman had taken the bait,
Jocelyn stormed into her villa. Fiona sensed something was wrong with her.
“What happened? Why do you look angry? Did you fight with Luke?” Fiona asked anxiously.
“No, I’m just a little tired. I want to go upstairs and sleep.” Jocelyn ran upstairs. However, she stopped
and looked down at Fiona.
“Mom, why did you adopt Janet? Look how that bitch has done to our family.”
“I didn’t want to! It was all because of your deceased grandfather.” Fiona sighed.
Unable to take it anymore, Jocelyn darted upstairs. Just as she walked past Bernie’s room, she saw
him taking a nap. An idea popped up in her mind. She secretly took Bernie’s phone and sent a
message to Janet, asking her to meet him.
She had typed a heartfelt message, stating that Bernie wanted to apologize to Janet on behalf of Fiona,
and asked if she could meet him in a cafe.
Jocelyn couldn’t think of any other idea. She and Fiona had fallen out with Janet. Only Bernie wasn’t at
odds with her, so she hoped Janet would agree to meet him. Jocelyn gritted her teeth. Her anger and
hatred toward Janet seemed to intensify with every passing day.
Their family had witnessed a rapid downfall because of her. It had been a couple of minutes since she
had sent the message, but there was no reply from Janet. Thinking that she had planned to ignore the
message, Jocelyn took the phone to write a more sincere message. However, just then, a message
popped up on the screen.
It was a reply from Janet. Jocelyn put the phone down, closed the door, and went out, her face a
picture of pure rage. She was determined to ruin Janet’s life once and for all.
